Noah Yasi started canvassing May 2012 in Ann Arbor, Michigan. His first campaign involved working on a ballot initiative to raise renewable energy standards in Michigan. His activist career has taken him all over the country, and we are pleased that Noah has chosen to lead our field canvass operation in Cincinnati.

Noah was born in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, but he grew up in Ann Arbor. He was inspired by his canvass director Emily Woodcock to pursue a career in canvassing. Noah says, “So many folks that you talk to about politics – don’t actually take action on what they care about – what interests me is that you can train people to take action on issues that directly impact their lives.”

Noah and his partner Jamie Petroff moved to Cincinnati in October. They are getting to know their new city and have adopted a puppy. Welcome Noah and Jamie!
